    Managed to get a bit done in the front veg patch this afternoon which was quite satisfying.

    Going to hoover the LR in a minute and then get the dinner cooking.

    My ironing is done too. Lovely day here today so was able to get the bedding dry on the line, but as I'm close to CY its raining here now too.

    Going to waste some time on here now till DH gets in. Dinner is prepared and just needs heating through.
    Spend less now, work less later.

    Thanks for the ebay heads up Valli - job for Sunday

    Bought a sack of potatoes earlier from the farm shop - risen £3 from year year and expected to go up by another £3 by the end of winter.

    Dinner cooking, stair hoovering next.

    Evening!

    Decluttered some hm Parkin this aft at my aunties house. We have organised Xmas, put the world to rights and drunk tea. The little moos had a ball. Youngest kissing the doggies (all 5 of them :eek:) and both enjoying sitting round her huge table with us all eating pie and peas together. Good family times.

    Stuck in traffic coming home, so straight upstairs for the pyjama dance...

    Good morning all xx

    I'm hoping to get the lists finished today so I can have a relaxing day tomorrow before going back to work/school on Monday. All uniforms(DD's and mine) are all washed and ironed ready so that's one thing I don't have to worry about.
    I have had a reply from freecycle about the car boot stuff I listed so I'm hoping thet will be collected today (they are in the car at the mo as I was taking them to the charity shop yesterday but couldn't park anywhere near the shop). I will also have a quick look in DD's room while cleaning in there to see if I can add to the piles.

    Hope all are well and hugs and spoons to those in need xx
